WolfComplexx (@WolfComplexx) reportedDespite the server error messages I received after trying to load into my game, Overwatch 2 is promising!
-
Erza (@Erza_Oficial) reportedFor who is trying to play Overwatch 2, i really do recommend you change the battlenet region to Asia, the queue is way shorter there and i don't really think i had high ping, asked in my match after login and people said that we were not in Asia. lmk if it work, maybe is a bypass
-
Stephen Trott - Steel Trooper (@SteelTrooper123) reported@SpectreBull I also see that Overwatch 2 did get hit with DDoS attacks *checks notes* only two hours after the game launched! I find it funny because Blizzard shut off Overwatch for a whole day to prep their servers for the sequel...

dam bro (@FurryPretty) reportedCome on overwatch, I’ve been with you for 5 years now and I’ve never seen anything like this. I know you’re working hard but my issue is that I was kicked out of the queue because you wanted sms and now I have to queue again. UNBELIEVABLE #Overwatch2

-
Invader Him (@TheTreLifestyle) reported@corykins From what they’re saying, there was a DDOS attack that they’re sorting out. But I think the facts that overwatch was love just a couple hours before and people were on, including new players coming the servers probably can’t handle it right now.
-
